SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ACUM Presents: Advocacy Belonging and Community in 2026
DESCRIPTION:Please join the ABCA Committee in-person or virtually to discuss global\, national\, and local matters currently impacting advisors and students. Snacks will be provided for the in-person participants!The Advising Council at the University of Michigan\, or ACUM\, brings together those who advise to best serve our students through the sharing of information\, ideas\, and best practices across U-M. We welcome your involvement in our committees and future events.R2: Create rapport and build academic advising relationships

SUMMARY:Performance:Tiffany Ng\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:University Carillonist Tiffany Ng performs on the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Carillon\, an instrument of 60 bells with the lowest bell (bourdon) weighing 6 tons.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Lurie Carillon every weekday that classes are in session. During these recitals\, visitors may take the elevator to level 2 to view the largest bells\, or to level 3 to see the carillonist performing. (Visitors subject to acrophobia are recommended to visit level 2 only.) An optional spiral stairway between levels 2 and 3 allows for up-close views of some of the largest bells.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Bounding HSL Numbers: A Measure of the Nilpotency of Frobenius
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: This thesis provides upper bounds for a certain singularity invariant\, in the case where the underlying ring is in one of a few well-known classes of rings. The Hartshorne-Speiser-Lyubeznik number or HSL number of a Noetherian local (or graded) ring is a measure of the nilpotency of Frobenius on local cohomology with support at the (homogeneous) maximal ideal. It is known that the HSL number of such a ring is finite\, but it is not known in general how to compute the HSL number for any given ring. In this thesis we present computable upper bounds for the HSL numbers of semigroup rings\, toric face rings\, and quotients of polynomial rings by monomial ideals\, and compute the exact HSL number of monomial hypersurfaces. We also relate the HSL number of a ring to the HSL number of its reduction\, provide Macaulay2 code to compute HSL numbers of quotients of polynomial rings\, and discuss the application of our results to bounding Frobenius test exponents.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Classroom Activities for Engaging with Politics\, Policy\, & Social Issues
DESCRIPTION:Across the disciplines\, we can help our students to build skills for civic and democratic engagement that will serve them throughout their careers and lives. This role can be challenging\, however\, particularly in politically polarized times. Our goal for this in-person\, interactive workshop is to strengthen instructors’ toolkits for incorporating civic skills-building in the classroom and discipline. We’ll explore specific classroom activities for class sessions discussing policy\, politics\, and social issues\, such as deliberative dialogue discussions and conversation cafes. We’ll focus on how to select and design activities well-suited for the specific skills we are seeking to foster during a class period.  \n\nOpen to faculty\, staff\, admin\, GSIs\, and post-docs. \nThis session is offered as part of the Promoting Democracy Teaching Series\, co-sponsored by CRLT and Ginsberg Center.\n\nRegistration: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/105958

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899: Sjaan Koppel
DESCRIPTION:This presentation examines older driver safety through a behavioural science lens\, challenging the assumption that chronological age alone defines driving risk. Drawing on longitudinal\, naturalistic driving evidence\, it highlights the roles of functional capacity\, task demands\, and self-regulation in shaping real-world driving behaviour. The findings have important implications for assessment\, licensing policy\, and supporting safe mobility in an ageing population.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Leveraging the Power of Diversity to Improve Academia and Society
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Page’s research focuses on the function of diversity in complex social systems\, the potential for collective intelligence\, and the design of institutions for meeting the challenges of a complex world. In 2025\, he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences and in 2011 to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is the author of more than one hundred research papers in a variety of fields including: game theory\, economics\, political theory\, formal political science\, sociology\, psychology\, philosophy\, physics\, public health\, geography\, computer science\, and management. His fifth book\, The Model Thinker\, was published by Basic Books in November 2018\, and has been an Amazon Best Seller in more than ten categories and is being translated into five languages. His first book\, The Difference\, was recently released as a Princeton Classic. His UMRA presentation will focus on the complex challenges we face as a nation and globally and how meeting those challenges requires collective intelligence. He will describe how collective intelligence depends upon diversity\, selection\, and adaptive interactions.
